FAPRI: Lower Government Payments and High Input Costs Impact Income

This year’s farm income will likely be down from what was seen in 2020. However, the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute at the University of Missouri expects this year’s net farm income to be much higher than what it was from 2015-to-2019. Net farm income is forecast to come in at $112 billion for 2021. In 2020, farm income topped $120 billion, which was the highest level since 2013.
